Vaulting♥Frog Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 I wouldnt skip the first one at all. The first has one of the most compelling storylines of the entire series. It sets the foundation for the entire series and gives critical imput on future events. What I will say is that achievement hunting in the AC games can be rough as some are bloody difficult or just long to do. That might be why they are saying skip the first one.

The first game was a good start, but it is the same thing over and over again. Its just not a good game. Obviously for story purposes you might want to get it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilsilmarillion Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 I started from the second...but its a really cool story, so start at the beginning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously for story purposes you might want to get it You could say that about any game really... CoD- get mission, go shoot people... Halo - have mission, go shoot aliens C&C - build base, wreak enemy base Its a rehash of the same stuff for every game with minute changes. How you decide to play the game is up to you but the over all scheme is basically the same all the time. In AC though you have a bit more wiggle room. You dont have to be super stealthy. You can be outright blunt about killing your targets, or anybody else for that matter. I personally think its the best out of the series for me so far. Its story is the most compelling for me and its gameplay is simple and pure. But that is all personal opinion (meaning everything that I wrote before this) so take what you will of it. In my experience, reviews mean nothing. They are always bias due to them being personal experiences of the reviewer on the game as well as a reflection of their personal preferences. Play the game yourself and decide on your own if you like it or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaulting♥Frog Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 True except Halo has a really good story So do many other games. There are storys out there that I dont like but which others do like (CoD for instance). Its up to the individual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiQuid BioniX Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 The first one was a super grind after the first two assassinations. The other games play so much better as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SykoWolf Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 If you skip ANY of them you will get confused. But Number 1 was rather......well boring to be honest, 2 was Much Better and i think 3 is the best imo.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caboose The Ace Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 this is me not joking at all ac has the most complex confusing storyline of all time so thats why u play them in order to get a decent understanding of whats happing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-38 Boss Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 Yeah, if you don't play from beginning to end you'll get WAAAAY too confused. Start from 1 and work your way up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melon0111 Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Assassins creed is an immensely story based game. To play it from the middle would be very confusing. I recommend playing all the way through 1 to III. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WonderWombat Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 Assassin's Creed - Awesome in the beginning exploring and attacking guards and such, really slows down towards the middle and gets really repetitive, picks up near the end. Assassin's Creed 2 - Pretty straight forward start, not as exciting as the first one. Variety along the way and it has a pretty consistent pace throughout the entire game, the end will either keep you going or push you away. Brotherhood/Revelations - Just spin-offs which are very similar to AC 2 with some stuff added here and there. Assassin's Creed 3 - Probably the most interesting characters in the series, and has a nice pace and interest up until the end where it sort of just drops. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeckoningZebra1 Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 Ah, I was hoping AC meant Animal Crossing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spectral Jester Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Personally I couldnt get into AC1, loved AC2, but Brotherhood and Revelations left me disappointed. AC3 was boring. AC2 had me running around the maps looking for all the feathers, 1000 gamerscored it on my old tag, and must get round to doing that on my this one.
